Jainism like all other religions was a patriarchal religion. However it adopted a liberal attitude towards women in certain respects. But did it practice what it preached. The book addresses the issue by taking the case of Jainas of Gujarat. This epigraphical study is an attempt to understand Jaina women's world view as far as possible from their own sources namely women's inscriptions belonging to second millennium. It also attempts to locate modifications taking place in the patriarchal ideals during the period of study. All those interested in women's issues epigraphy and Jainism will find this book interesting and useful. 188 pp.…
